Hi,

Haven't posted in a long time. Got discouraged after the insurance company tried to tell me the doctor sent in someone else's paper work & I would have to wait another 6 - 8 weeks for approval.

After many hurdles & insurance difficulty I am finally having surgery tomorrow. I can say that I am quite nervous & excited at the same time.

I have just suffered through the liquid pre op diet. Never want to do that again.

I have lost a total of 52 lbs. Since I started my journey.

For someone not in the process it is hard for them to understand. The family is happy that I have lost so much weight but when I went to see them they couldn't even recognize that I had lost the weight!

But I am looking forward to seeing the difference at Christmas time.

I wish everyone else good luck on their surgeries. & hope that everyone else has an easier insurance time than I did.

I just wish I wasn't so nervous.

:frown: Congrats!! I am sure everything will be fine!! My date is Sept 30th. I look forward to reading more of your journey post surgery. Take Care!!

:smile:I wish you all the BEST!! My day is August 26th. I am a bit nervous too. keep us poted:)
